You can safely ignore the fact that this
path is not being found.

The VTK_DATA_ROOT is used for running VTK
examples and tests. You don't really need
this data in order to use VTK in your
application.

It is nice to have it though, specially if
your don't have any images to play with.

You can obtain this data by downloading the
VTKData tarfiles from

     http://www . vtk . org/get-software . php

expand them in a directory of your choice
and then point the VTK_DATA_ROOT variable
in CMake to that directory.
